Why .Ie Took His Life.
Hood Alston committed suicide in
New Orleans aft* 3 ! writing a full ex¬
planation of why he wished to die. He
had been an able writer for the news¬
papers in many of the large cities, his
habits had been those of a gentleman,
and his death, in the abscence of the
letter that he left, would have been
inexplicable. He was struck on the
head by a piece of shell at Gettysburg,
and afterward was affected by brief
aberrations of mind, during which he
felt an uncontrollable desire to go away
from his friends, He was in the In¬
terior Department in Washington, but
'eft tlie position and roved to Montano
Two years later he was in California,
where he became secretary ol a mining
company, and thought that he was re¬
covering from his malady, but subse¬
quently grew worse, It never led me
into crime,” he said, “but would im¬
pel me to get away from those that
loved me.” I have often found myself
walking in a wilderness, not knowing
where I was going. find On waking I was
cunning enough to out where I was
without betraying my great secret. He
married, and had every requisite for
domestic happiness. “Last November,”
he continued, “my disease assumed
another form. I became possessed of
an impulse to kill my friends. I could
hardly resist an opportunity. The de¬
sire would last but for a moment and
pass away, An infant was born to us
two months ago. I loved it, was proud
of it. When it first looked upon me
the desire seized upon me to prey upon
its young life. My friends seemed to
have been ignorant of my mental con¬
dition. I imparted it to no one, not
even to my darli ng wife. I die that
others may live. Do I fear to die? No.
Feeling as I do that if I lived others
may die by my hand, I lay down my
life with fortitude. I have struggled
for months to keep my hands off my
best friends.” Alston also wrote a
tender message to his wife, and made
the preparations very deliberately for
poisoning himself.
No Catastrophe Likely to Occur
TO Our Globe in 1881.—In spite of
Mother Shiplon s prophecy an astrono.
mical writer says: There will be no
catastrophe in 1881. The conjunction
of the four great planets at perihelion
is not going to take place. It is an idle
scare. It is true that the longitude of
the perihelion of three of these planets
will bring them somewhat near each
other. Jupiter will be in perihelion, I
think, about 1881. Saturn will be in
conjunction near that time, and Nep
tune will not be near enough to help
any mischief that may be feared; while
the position 1881 of the Tranus in the heav
ens in will be about 148 degrees
R. A.
Every hundred years we have five
conjunctions of Jupiter and Saturn, and
always have had—without the least
damage thus far. Being in conjunc
tion possibly so near produce to Jupiter’s higher perihelion tides may
than
usual—as 23,000,000 Jupiter’s miles position the will be
of nearer sun
and the earth than he is at his mean
distance. Let. us not delude ourselves
nor be frightened by chimeras.
Setting aside Grant’s military pay
altogether, and making no account eight of
private donations, $300,000 iu
years ought to have left him a snug
balance. If he has spent it all he has
spent it on himself and those belonging
to him, and not in the public service.
The St. Louis Republican remarks,
however, that two year’s travel in Eu¬
rope and a trip around the world, are
not usually regarded as indications ot
painful poverty. Jefferson was heavily obliged
to sell his library, and then died
in debt ou account of neglected busi¬
ness. One of our ex-Presidents died a

But when he was come to the place of

“l’ay us the customs;” and he said, “I
will pay the custom." They said to
him,‘ Thou carr'est clothesand he
said, “I will pay for clothes.” Then
they said to him, “Thou carriest gold ;
and he answered them, “I will pay for
niy him, gold.” On this they further said to
“Surely thou bearest the finest
silk; the he replied, “I will pay custom for
finest silk.’’ Then said they “Sure
ly, it must be pearls that thou takest
with thee;” and he only answered, “I
will pay for pearls.” Seeing that they
could name nothing of value for which
the patriarch was not willing to pay
custom, they said : “It can not be—but
open thou the box and let us see what
is within.” So they opened the box,

the United States district judgeship P for
Maryland. It is said that if th e aps

Col. Blackburn has been visited by
numerous friends at his quarters, at
Willai ' d ’ s Hotel, and many of them
speak very hopefully of his chance for
the speakership. Friends of Mr.Randall
on the otaer hand, assert that he has
lost riod no strength, but, at this early pe

to be speculative in character. The

related that a gentleman advertised

placed a broom—Dutchmen are fond
of brooms, for sweeping even the Eng
channel, according to history—
across the threshold. The ladies, as
they came in, either jumped over it or
kicked it aside; only one stooped to
pick it up and put it in the corner. She

The Silver Wedding of the Cable.
One of the Most Distinguished Gatherings
that Ever Assembled on the Continent.
- \
Mr. Cyrus W. Field gave a reception
on Tuesday evening at his residence,
No. 123 East Twenty*first street, New
York, to commemorate the twenty-fifth
the anniversary first of the successful laying of
ocean cable. Eighteen hundred
invitations were sent out, and at least
fifteen hundred gentlemen responded
in person.
In response to tumultuous cheering,
Mr. Cyrus N. Field spoke, and among
many felicitous things said ;
“When I look at this ceiling and
these walls, all unchanged, and think
ot the group, small in number but
great in heart, that then gathered
around this table, and of what they set
on foot, I feel that the achievements of
our days have surpassed the marvels of
fable and romance. Peter Cooper has
written his name on walls of stone and
iron; Moses Taylor has heaped up
‘riches and honor ;’ Marshall 0. RoR
erts has plowed either ocean with his
swift ships; and yet nothing that these
men have done has wrought half so
much for the world as that*which they
that night began. The flag, American
and English, wrought into one, which
hangs over these windows, is the sign
of their constancy in defeat, as of their
vietory. That united flag floated at
the masthead of the Niagara in the
disastrous expedition of 1857 and the
partially successful one of 1858; it
was run up again at the fore of the
Great Eastern for the voyage when she
failed in I860, and was kept streaming
in the wind on the voyage of 1866 un¬
til it floated over a victorions ship and
a great work accomplished. Events
have actually outrun their imagination.
Little did I dream this night twenty
five years ago that within twenty years
I should stand beneath the Southern
Cross and send from Australasia a mes¬
sage to my northern home darting with
the speed of thought across the nearly
two thousand miles of Australian de¬
sert. through the Arafura Sea, across
the Bay of Bengal and the Sea under of Ara¬
bia, along the Red Sea coast, the
Mediterranean and Biscay’s sleepless
bay, and finally beneath our own At¬
lantic to this island city, “situate at
the entry of the sea.” Seeing that so
much has been accomplished in the
quarter century past, what may we not
expect in the quarter century to come?
Then when every part of the earth
shall be visited every day by the elec^
trie spark, with its njessages from the
peoples of many lands, we may see
that understanding which is sure to
teach the sons of men that ways of
peace are the best ways to prosperity
and honor.”
Why Bees Work iu the Dark.
A lifetime may be spent in investi—
gating the mysteries hidden in the bees

be undiscovered. The formation of the
cells has long been a celebrated pro
